3

Let the chicken marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature.

4

Heat some oil and a little salted butter in a pan.

5

Once the oil is moderately hot, add the marinated chicken pieces, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

6

Cook the chicken for 1.5 minutes on the first side, then flip it over.

7

Cook the chicken for approximately 10 to 12 minutes until it is golden brown and cooked through.

Transfer the cooked chicken into a deep bowl.

Light a piece of charcoal on the gas until it becomes red in color.

Place the red hot charcoal in a small steel glass and splash a few drops of oil on it to create smoke.

Cover the bowl with a lid for about 1.5 minutes to let the chicken absorb the smoky flavor.
